i'm annoyed by carrots at the moment
as i've recently discovered that they're meant to be purple, not orange. purple carrots would be awesome.

you can get them in Australian supermarkets

Grow them in potato sacks
Keeps them too high for carrot fly and they grow straighter and longer in finer soil.

Also also ... don't grow potatoes in those potato sacks.
Potatoes will grow fucking anywhere.

I got a few kilos of potatoes this year and I hadn't even planted potatoes.
They were leftovers from the previous year. Fuck knows how the Irish managed to fail at potatoes. The fucking idiots.
